I know music blogging isn't a race to be won but sometimes you just want to get the (legal) scoop. To that end I've been checking the Anti- website for a couple weeks to see if/when they'd put up a new song from the upcoming Joe Henry cd Civilians .

This may be my all-time favorite mix. A perfect blend of acoustic guitars and piano, all mellow in mood. All album ending tracks. Perfect to play before bed. I may post v1.0; but it's not as good. Working on v3.0… keep your sleepy eyes peeled. 1 ~ Michael Gulezian: Golgotha 2 ~ Kaki King: My Insect Life 3 ~ Joe Henry: Scar 4 ~ Cassandra Wilson: Harvest Moon 5 ~ Kathleen Edwards: Sweet [...]
